    She may be eating too fast. I would feed her on a plate or out of a treat dispensing toy like this: PetSafe SlimCat Cat Food Dispenser in Blue at PETCO

    It may also be that the diet you are feeding does not agree with her. Dry food is extremely high in carbohydrates, especially the crappy brands like Science Diet, meow mix, iams, etc. Cats are carnivores and their bodies are not designed to handle all of that plant matter so for some cats, their bodies just start rejecting it which is evident in their medical problems. Whether it's vomiting, diarrhea, or their organs beginning to malfunction you begin to see the strain this diet takes on the cat's system. If you can switch your cat over to wet food (preferably a good brand with a lot of meat in it and not a lot of/no grain or potatoes) that would be ideal.

    I agree- grain free !
    I use :
    buffalo blue , Castor & Pollux -ultramax , and wellness (dry and wet) (occasionally royal canine dry)

    If you are considering a diet change-change things slowly!

    Right ! It could break the bank for sure.
    I have grabbed quite a few coupons for different canned cat foods.
    If you visit their sites to create a "log on".
    ie I got coupons from wellness today.
